An energy expert said that Pakistan needs a score of coal-based power projects to bridge the widening gap between electricity demand and supply.
The country produces 16,000 megawatts of electricity and local demand variably stands at around 22,000MW.
Mr Chaudhry Abdul Qayyum, who is spearheading a key coal mining project in Thar district of Sindh, said China produces more than two-third of its electricity from coal, which cost-effectively fulfills the energy requirements of the second biggest economy of the world.
Mr Qayyum said that “By producing bulk of cheap electricity from coal, China has long been benefiting power consumers, particularly industrial and commercial category, through sufficiently meeting burgeoning power demand at much lower tariff. This makes Chinese export industries competitive against Beijing’s global competitors.”
Energy experts agreed that the country should follow models and track success stories around the world to address its energy sector challenges.
The experts said that resource-constrained federal government strives hard to make the energy-mix fuel efficient and economically viable.
They said that coal is a leading source of energy, has a tremendous contribution to energy mix and will continue to lead in the foreseeable future despite hype created against its use due to global warming related concerns.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) report 2015 said traditional coal-based economies like China, India, Indonesia, the Philippines and South Korea will keep pursuing coal as a fuel in future.
In fact, the world is using more and more coal for generating electricity. Worldwide, there has been around two times jump in coal consumption between the 2000 and 2012 period.
